Celtic player ratings as Greg Taylor struggles but Daizen Maeda goal offers slim Euro hope

Celtic face an uphill battle if they are to end a miserable 18-year run without winning a European knockout tie.

Ange Postecoglou watched his side go down to a shock 3-1 home loss to Norwegian outfit Bodo/Glimt in their Eruopa Conference League tie.

Not since they defeated Barcelona in the 2004 UEFA Cup have the Hoops know a post-Christmas knockout tie.

And dropping down to UEFA's new third tier competition didn't even help with Daizen Maeda's goal giving them a bit of hope for the return next week.

Here's how the players rated on a disappointing night in Parkhead.

Joe Hart

Josip Juranovic

Often left exposed as the Norwegians stretched Celts out wide and tried to isolate the full backs. Decent going forward and provided delivery for the goal. 5

Cameron Carter-Vickers

Callum McGregor

Matt O’Riley

Took time to settle as the visitors were in about him. Couldn’t nick possession enough as the first line of defence and it left his team open to
